Eros---I was going to suggest that but I thought that everyone
would freak out!I used to shoot handguns competitively.I now, keep a 22 pistol,by the back door.Voila,NO more squirrels,at my wifes,bird feeders.May I also,suggest a Crossman BB/Pellet gun.
The power can increase,up to 10 pumps(No CO2 Cartridge)
They are silent,have a rifeled barrel & are very accurate.=no
pissed-off neighbors.I can't use a trap,because of my wifes cat!
Steph---We had ground squirrels/chipmunks digging around my
newly paved driveway.My wife checked the web.They suggested
5 gal buckets,1/2-3/4 filled with water,then you float sunflower
seeds on top of the water.You run a wooden ramp(board)up &
slightly overhanging,the buckets side.They walk up,the ramp,try
to eat the seed,fall in & drown.It sounds stupid but it works.
Suggestion:Wear earplugs,so the screaming won't bother you!
P.S.Try the web or a search! Irish
